AEDM: Day 2

The original inspiration for this painting was Illustration Friday's "Scary" theme. On the outside, honey badgers are cute and innocent (even their name is sweet), but looks can be deceiving. According to The Guinness Book of World Records they are "the world's most fearless creatures"... They are ferocious!

What scares me? Things that aren't as they seem... Nastiness with an adorable exterior terrifies me.

I started this painting by using a collage technique Amy shared in her free workshop on Saturday. She is having another free live workshop tomorrow at 2pm CST and you're invited!

I love the way this piece turned out and how you took us through the process. You crack me up with the contridictions in this piece. The blond wig, the pink & rose gingham check and the lollipop and then the claws. Great work.

About Me

I like to make stuff.
In college, I made enough stuff to earn a BFA from the University at Buffalo. After entering the real world, I went on to make magical messes across miles of wall space, ceilings, and canvas.
Whether I'm making a painting in the studio or making a meal for my family, I believe opportunities to play, have fun, and make wild imaginings come true are everywhere. Anything is possible... No idea is too ridiculous, no dream is too big.
EVERY day is a good day to live a creative life!
